This work examines an increasing trend in migration - transnationalism. Immigrants today are no longer rooted in one location. By building transnational social networks, economic alliances and political ideologies, they are able to cross the geographic and cultural boundaries of both their countries of origin and of settlement. Through ethnographic studies of immigrant populations from St Vincent, Grenada, Haiti and the Philippines to the United States, the authors aim to demonstrate that transnationalism is something other than expanded nationalism. They argue that by placing immigrants in a limbo between the settler and visitor, transnationalism challenges the concepts of citizenship and nationhood.
